Hello, dry skin may result from reduced sebum production, leading to decreased skin hydration and subsequent impairment of the local skin barrier function.
Dry skin is often associated with chronic dermatological conditions. Common dry-skin disorders include chronic eczema or xerosis-associated pruritus, which may develop over time.
